The New Giants have climbed up to third in the NFC East after a 20-19 win over the Washington Football Team in Week 6.
It was a nerve-wracking game for Big Blue, but they were able to outlast Washington to gain their first win of the season. The game came down to the last minute but Washington could not convert on their two-point attempt to win the game.
It was a big win for Joe Judge and the Giants and puts New York only one and a half wins away from first place in the division.
Here’s how Twitter reacted.
#Giants get their first win of the season against Washington.

Way to go G-Men. We needed this one.

Kyle Allen just lost a fumble in the most inexcusable way. #Giants recover and return it for a TD.
That was about as bad a result as Ron Rivera could have asked for from the guy he put his neck on the line for. Turnover leads to a NY lead with 3:29 left.
Wow. pic.twitter.com/EHmATP0Axh

Great coverage on the two-point play and a sneaky good play by @JabrillPeppers to force the throw #Giants

Congrats to this #Giants team. They fight every week, and it looks like they’ll finally get that elusive 1st W.

#WSHvsNYG Always down to the wire with these two.#Giants defense was great, especially the LBs who stepped up due to losing Carter for the season last week
Jones one INT shouldn’t have been but can’t make that decision. Slayton and Shepard need to get healthy.
🙏 for CJ Board
